Last December, we launched our #donations campaign to accelerate Jami's progress. Five months later, we want to share with you a summary of our campaign, as stated in our commitment to publish a full report to all donors. 🙂
The entire Jami team would like to warmly thank all contributors.❤️
Want to know more about the progress campaign so far? Read our article :
If only there was a way to integrate peer to peer payments into federated social media without relying on Stripe and Google... Maybe someday it will be discovered!
Sheesh, Mozilla has really lost their way. Putting ads in the search bar? We already have a search engine that does that, we don't need two running at the same time.

I mostly use #Brave now (with the shit turned off) because #Firefox was degrading in performance and stability, and became unusable on my cheap mobile. For now that's ok.
That #Mozilla are doing this is very sad. I am though hopeful better days are coming, with new ecosystems based on #p2p that will bypass the enclosure and unleash the next generation of openeness & creativity.
I'm literally working on a demo to publish and browse websites on #Autonomi, so it's not just work thinking.
I'm facilitating the first ever GOAT (Gathering for Open Ag Tech) Book Club this Saturday (5/18), open to any and all! 📚🤓🐐
Session #1 is on "Networks, Peers & the Virtual Class," with readings from Yochai Benkler, Richard Barbrook, Michael Bauwens, and others. More session details in the link below. #bookclub#foss#reading#p2p
FilePizza is a free peer-to-peer file transfers in your browser. FilePizza never store anything. Because FilePizza uses WebRTC, file transfers ate always fast, private, and secure.
As a fun little experiment, @damon and I worked together to get a #Mastodon instance up and running that stores media on #IPFS! It was an interesting learning experience.
I don’t think we’re ready to announce anything yet, as this was in service of another project in development. But, there’s an increasing number of ways to host content on an IPFS node service, and tie it back to platforms like Mastodon using an S3-compatible API for Object Storage and some proxying.
This is all pretty rudimentary, but the big-brain realization is that a more robust version could be done by pairing Minio to s3x if we wanted to self-host an IPFS node with those specific features.
@deadsuperhero
I expect more of this, not just re #IPFS but as #p2p systems are happening, storage models will change for the better. #Autonomi is the project I'm most familiar with and they have already talked about this and have partners ready to upload their data. They are not yet revealed, but I wouldn't be surprised if replacing AWS was in there.
I'm working on a demo myself in the area of web publishing and browsing, and am very excited about this whole area, so I wish you luck. @damon
@molly0xfff
One answer to that perennial problem is: don't. Start building with p2p as soon as you can and support those who are building #p2p platforms you might use in future, such as #Autonomi.
@root discord will literally crash my laptop, either app or in browser, sharkey does all the flashy real time action and is smooth as budda #C++#keepFossAlive#p2p#hacker
Enquanto aplicativos como Slack, Discord e Signal usam servidores centrais, o Quiet sincroniza mensagens diretamente entre os dispositivos de uma equipe, por meio do Tor, sem a necessidade de servidor.
A #p2p future for the web is the radical idea that its bad to put all data in a single place owned by 3 companies and rented by a few hundred. The internet wasnt a mistake, the cloud was a mistake. Platforms were a mistake. A mistake where its not only possible but routine for "everyone's health data" to get stolen. https://infosec.exchange/@patrickcmiller/112341111375581551
I need to share my health data with like 3 people that arent me. Why on earth is that data in the same pile as literally everyone else's.
Even if we break the will
of the machines with formalism and cryptography, we will never
be able to put Ted inside of an encrypted, nested log, and while
the datacenter burns and we frantically call Ted’s pager, we will
realize that Ted has already left for the cafeteria.
「 With BTFS, you can mount any .torrent file or magnet link and then use it as any read-only directory in your file tree. The contents of the files will be downloaded on-demand as they are read by applications. Tools like ls, cat and cp works as expected. Applications like vlc and mplayer can also work without changes 」
We're working to make a #Federated alternative to #Bandcamp where up and coming bands can connect with fans and share their music on the Fediverse.
The progress is really encouraging, so it's time to get some feedback from real #musicians
My goal is to have something you could actually use in the next month or two. So please get your ideas in so's I can squeeze them into my launch calendar.
@benpate
Here's my dream. It's probably of the chart and i do not intend to write this as any form of expectation or judgement.
My ideal #fediverse#music services has #p2p streaming. This is to unburden my smol server from the unlikely yet secretly desired organic DDOS generated by that killer track everyone suddenly understood.
Of course, every #track is a post, with description, eventual lyrics and individual cover-art. Albums are individual posts too. They are basically digests with a bunch of tracks attached, linking to each track's independent post. They have an individual album art and description of what they represent or conceptualize.
This dream service would be entirely interoperable with #peertube. (Although i suspect this would require some sort of collaboration with peertube since i think audio only entities on peertube are in mp4 format.)
My dream service defaults to disregard the notion of me becoming some sort of recruiting agent for big tech record-distribution companies like Spatify, iFumes, etc... It can optionally be that for those who don't have the strength to stand up against the big-tech narrative, but primarily it would operate much like Faircamp does, by encouraging the audience to chip in directly on the spot with donation funnels on the site and donation links in the fedi-posts body.
My dream service leverages activitypub groups, in similar way that lemmy and peertube does. This is to allow artist with many different projects to create different "channels" representing the difference between their various ventures. This could also be used by labels to create different "channels" for different artists. Multiple users can curate one or several of these channels.
I might have more ideas coming after another cup of java. But this is my input for now. Take it as it is: a dream, by a derp. An enthusiastic and encouraging one though! What you do is great, regardless how close or far off my lil' dream it ends up being!
Did you know that you don't need to commit to an entire @agregore browser to make use of it's tech? If you already have #nodejs installed you can run agregore-compatible #JavaScript modules from your cli over any protocol supported by the browser. (e.g. #IPFS or #gemini )
npx agregore run hyper://blog.mauve.moe/example.js
With this you can share #p2p code between applications and command line utilities.
